Abstract:

The Department of DefenseTricare system faces significant challenges in protecting the health of nine million service members, their families, and retirees. At the same time these entities must control costs and monitor, measure, and improve the quality of care provided to its members. Clinical Looking Glass CLG provides actionable health care metrics on longitudinal patterns of care generated from a data repository of clinical and administrative information. Implementation of CLG on a proof-of-concept data set from the Military Health Service will allow demonstration of its effectiveness as part of the DoD s arsenal of quality of care analysis tools.
